Zoolights is always a popular destination during the holiday season, but even more people are visiting the Calgary Zoo this year to take in the amazing display.
Roz Freeman, Special Events Co-ordinator, says the relatively warm weather of the past week has brought out the crowds.
More than 58,000 people have visited so far.
“(If) we compare to 2012, 2013 isn’t really a fair comparison after the flood,” she said. “After 24 days in 2012 we had 49,048 people; so, we’re just under 10,000 above from 2012.”
The more than 1.5 million lights at Zoo Lights can be seen until January 3rd.
